WTAE-TV Pittsburgh’s Action News 4 Investigative Report Paul Van Osdol visited the Holiday Park Volunteer Fire Department on Thursday and spoke with Chief Jim Sims about the impact that the COVID-19 Coronavirus is having on volunteer fire departments in our area. They spent time chatting about the economic impact from lack of fundraising, to expenses from non-budgeted gear to combat CoronaVirus, to the overall safety measures taken to protect first responders.
